About Elim
A quiet sanctuary in God's creation
Elim Training Centre exists to provide a distraction-free environment where Kingdom values are exemplified. Whether your group needs to rest, grow or reconnect, Elim is your place.
We do not run programmes. We create the space for yours.
Located just outside Okahandja in central Namibia, Elim serves as a peaceful retreat where Christian churches and organisations come together for rest, learning and fellowship.
Our model is simple and powerful: you bring the vision, and we provide everything else. Groups arrive with their own teaching, training or retreat agenda, and leave having had the space, quiet and hospitality to make it count.
Elim Training Centre is an operation of Judea Harvest Namibia, and income from guest bookings sustains the property for the churches, leaders, families and young people who gather here.
